BLOG REVIEW:SUNBURN FESTIVAL

2008 is being welcomed in with a mighty cold blast here in the UK, which is of course one reason why our DJs love to play the big festivals that happen at this time of year in Australia and other suitably summery parts of the world.

Goa has a long tradition as a New Year’s hangout, with its history of wild trance parties on the beach.

And at the weekend it saw India’s first ever major 2-day electronic music event in the shape of the Sunburn Festival. (We previewed the appearance of Above & Beyond hosting their own Anjunabeach stage there a while back).

Obviously this sponsored event, put on by MTV India star Nikhil with a whole host of top notch international guests is a big step for electronic music in India.

The party was aimed at an enthusiastic Indian audience who seem to be really getting into dance music these days so it was an important milestone.
